The grand setting at Golf View Apartments
This event is a historic one for Kenya as there will be live transmission of the top 5 boards on this website Kenya Chess Masala. This has been brought to you courtesy of Terrian Chess Academy who recently acquired the top of the range DGT Chess Boards which are internet enabled.
Has Africa ever ever had live transmission of any chess tournament? It is possible that some event in the past might have had live transmission of the games. However North of the Limpopo River and South of the Egyptian pyramids this is likely to be the first!
